Which type of cellphone do you think is the best to use?
Bar type , Flip type or the slide type.
I vote for the bar type. I've used slide type before but due to frequent sliding, the keypad loses its prints and even there are scratches behind the screen. So the phone looks old soon. I think the slide type will suit for those whose don't use the phone very frequently. But i have not tried flip type yet.

I vote for a candy bar type (but not a touchscreen one). its really practical, easy dand fast to use, although a flip/sliding one has a cool style for its user. I think the flip and sliding phone is easy to get mechanical broken (if the user use it frequently). always a candy bar type for me hehehehe.....

i think the slide or flip one are ok as form factor for cellphones!!surel now the keyboard is less used than in the past considering the touchscreen available on many models of the cellphones so you can choose using a normal keyboard or virtual one..even if i think that having a normal one enabled on your device will be useful in many cases than the touchscreen and virtual qwerty!!

I have used both the flip phone and the slide phone. I prefer the flip phone over the slider, but right now I have a touch screen phone, which is less than 2 weeks old. I guess it really all depends on your preference as everyone is different. The touch screen is nice, but it is hard to get used to, that is for sure. I use the other screen mostly as it isn't a touch screen, and has the qwerty keyboard too. Basically, my phone is a touch screen on the outside and keyboard on the inside. I really like the phone, as it is the best one I have ever had, and the nicest one too. Take care, and happy mylotting.
